Nas Joined by Young Protesters at Fox Building, Delivers Petitions to Colbert Instead

Just back from the NewsCorp building in Midtown Manhattan where famed hip hop artist Nas joined ColorofChange.org, MoveOn.org, and lots of young sign-carrying protesters to demand that FOX News stop calling race-baiting attacks fair and balanced news.

Though ColorofChange reached out to FOX News, Nas did not actually deliver the 620,00 plus petitions that their members signed. Instead I hear that Nas will be appearing on The Colbert Report to address Fox’s racist smears. Watch at 11:30 PM/ET

After the jump see a few pics from the protest.
